On May 9th, Josh Ibbett is leaving his 2-year job at Hunt Wheels to begin a year-long around the world bike trip. To celebrate — although I’m sure Josh will be missed — Hunt Wheels launched and is sending Josh off with their new Hunt SuperDura Dynamo wheels.

The SON delux dynamo equipped front wheel offers in cockpit USB charging for your GPS/phone when paired with the right hardware, or charge-free lighting. The SuperDura Dynamo wheels come with Hunt’s 25mm wide 4Season rims in a 32 spoke build and weigh 1,939g per pair or 1,029g if you buy just a front. Wheelsets start at $643.34 USD or you can buy just the front with a SONdelux for $424.17 USD. Find out more at HuntBikeWheels.com Watch Josh’s send-off video below…

I already use a pair of 4 Season Hunt wheels for bike packing and they are great. They look even better with a dynamo hub.
